Windermere Attractions
The town of Windermere consists of the older part, Bowness-on-Windermere, and the more modern part higher up the hill. The parish church, St Martin's, consecrated in 1483, has been preserved in its Late-Gothic Perpendicular style; the east window of the choir (14/15th century) is interesting. The National Park Information center has its headquarters in the High Street.
Windermere is also a popular centre for watersports and climbing activities or shopping and relaxing for tea. Some of the activities to be enjoyed on Windermere Lake include swimming, water skiing and sailing.
